Techpost#4-Creating facebook profile for Samuel Finley Breese Morse
http://www.sfu.ca/~xja1/tech114/techpost4.jpg
Samuel F.B.Morse(1791-1872) is the first person who developed Telegraph and Morse code, He also attend the society of artistics and politics.Therefore his social activities is very rich and interesting.
I made his facebook as ”opened” (everyone can view his profile without adding him as a friend). In his self introduction sentence on the top, I put morse code of ”retiring” in order to show his smart working field.(the morse code was translated from http://www.mathsking.net/morse.htm
In his Networks, I put some most rememberable groups for him, which can show that he was graduated from University of Yale in 1810, he was interested in Neo-classical Art, have been working on Telegraph and Morse code, have published articles on New York Observer, and hewas standing for Anti-Catholic and Anti-immigration.
In his list of friends I chose these 6 people:
His father Jeddiah Morse and first daughter Susan,
His art teacher Washington Allston, who brought him to England had affected him a lot on his artistic life.
Charles Wheatstone, who helped Morse on developing telegraph,
Alfred Vail, who has helped Morse by using his knowledge and money, but finally left.
John Adams, a politician, who has his portrait painted by Morse.
The characteristic of those people are shown on their message left on Morse’s Facebook wall. For example, Charles Wheatstone left message by using Morse code, although it just means ”Let’s work on the next project.” Morse’s daughter Susan also left ”I love you” in code. Alfred Vail said goodbye on Morse’s wall, the sentences is not made up by me, but quote from his real speech from Wikipedia.
